The Holy
Archangels
November 8th
Synaxis of the Holy Archangels Michael,
Gabriel, Raphael & all the Bodiless Powers
Troparion (Tone 1)
Let us praise Cherubim, Seraphim, Thrones, Powers,
Authorities and Principalities, Dominions, Archangels and Angels
for they are the Bodiless ministers of the Unoriginate Trinity
and revealers of incomprehensible mysteries. Glory to Him Who has
given you being; glory to Him Who has given you light; glory to
Him Who is praised by you in thrice-holy hymns.
Archangels comprise only one of the ranks of angels. We believe there are Seven Archangels. "Michael, Gabriel and Raphael" are descriptive titles as their names are too terrible for men to know. Here, these three give honor to Jesus Christ and reveal Him to mankind.
